@verge@jaredwhite the fact that mozilla is complaining while google is silent does not quell my fear that the end result of this change will a blink monopoly
@verge I’m for it. If it gets people to leave birdsite and I can follow friends on Threads without a Threads account. That makes for a stronger alternative. Would be great if BlueSky followed suit ( feels inevitable maybe? ).
@verge Good to see they are actively working on this. I'll be interested to see how they handle ads in the future, hopefully they won't inject them into the feeds.
@verge Despite the issue with Meta, I think it's a good thing over all. Enabling the popularity of ActivityPub can be a good thing.
Of course, as soon as something becomes mass market it will become a dumpster fire. The upside, is it does let you block out bad instances. Just as long as big companies don't go ahead and make their own version of ActivityPub to supersede the existing version.
